The Occasionalists Present: Post-Inauguration Live Karaoke to Benefit Planned Parenthood

Hey, do you hate Donald Trump? I sure do. I hate him sooo much, just being serious. If you feel like I do, and you also enjoy performing Karaoke, let me tell you about a fun event happening this Friday. On January 27th, The Occasionalists, a wildly talented, Brooklyn-based cover band will be hosting Post-Inauguration Live Karaoke at Union Hall in Brooklyn. Tickets are only $10, with all proceeds benefitting Planned Parenthood, and other Rights organizations.

The Occasionalists will play all of the songs live and then you can just sing along – super fun! Come let your voice be heard — on stage, in the crowd or at the bar! Have some fun and relax in safe place filled with other sane people who didn’t help to get us into this mess!

This sounds like a lot of fun. I wish I could go, but I have to work early Saturday morning. Keep me in the loop if they do any more, because I would LOVE to go. And Cake’s version of “I Will Survive” is actually in my karaoke repertoire.
